Below is a selection of some of the paper ephemera pulled from used books over the past year. Were the 3-D glasses used to read a book? R.I.P. the Fun Forest at Seattle Center... it was a place filled with carnival rides. My sixth grade school patrol went there as an end-of-year treat and we got to ride the Wild Mouse roller coaster.

I just listened to a great fiction podcast on the New Yorker website. These two Canadian women are two of my favorite writers, and the talk with Atwood at the end is quite interesting. Mavis Gallant is in her nineties now, still living in Paris.
